Haha, awesome. I really dont like Syracuse because of all the crying Boheim does each March. I actually used to root for them to well before the last couple of years.

HAHAHAHAHAH SUCK IT BLOWHEIM. I love it when that smug coward gets his butt kicked. Did they schedule any road non-conference games this year, or is Blowheim's definition of "road test" still playing Iona at Madison Square Garden?

HAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Trust me, this is standard practice at the Cuse... Lose to a subpar team every year. Though, last yea'rs Cleveland State team was pretty damn decent.

Not good to lose an exhibition to the local D-II team.

The pic currently on Le Moyne's athletic website (http://www.lemoynedolphins.com/splash/index-photo) is absolutely priceless.

Congrats to a fellow Jesuit school. And I hate Syracuse because of Boheim.

"Are you telling me Syracuse wouldn't win the A-10?"

That's right Mick. Thanks for playing.

B-Espn reporting on this? Horrors that a Big Greased team would actually ever lose.

We can now tell you Syracuse would not win the Northeast-10 as well.

I know that OSU lost to Findlay (I think) 2 years ago. I don't know about Michigan State. UK lost to Gardner-Webb a few years ago too, although that may not have been an exhibition game...

Reps for that one.

Thanks!

EDIT: I think that is the first time I have multi-quoted. I kind of feel like Snipe, except I haven't been drinking...

Gardner-Webb is Division 1.

MSU lost to Grand Valley State.

OSU did lose to Findlay two years ago.

And Findlay only lost to us by 3 or 4 points a couple of years ago (I think). They were #1 in D2 at the time.

I'm interested (or as interested as one can be for an exhibition) in the NKU game. NKU is a top 20 D2 team and has 3 or 4 D1 xfers (Wisconsin, West VA, and St. Louis). Exhibitions are just that and I don't put a lot of stock in Syracuse losing to a D2 team. That doesn't mean I don't take a lot of satisfaction in, however :)

This team was picked to finish 3rd in their conference though, they aren't even the favorites in Division 2 in their own conference!

Holy crap look at the improvement in 'Cuse's schedule. They actually leave the state of NY out of conference this year. I don't know if that has ever happened before.

Usually the only time they leave the state is if they are in a tourneyment somewhere.

Wow, it's the perfect storm for Chickey. Her Mom went to LeMoyne, Dad went to Cuse and she went to Cornell. I actually saw her Mom rub it in to Dad today, he had no defense. I hope that Cornell beats Cuse too. It would be too perfect.

I HATE dayton.

I find it amusing that a school in Syracuse, NY (yes, they're also located in Syracuse) would be nicknamed the Dolphins.

But if you think that's humiliating, Florida International lost by 10 points to NAIA school Northwood. Nice debut for Isiah Thomas as FIU's head coach - no wonder he didn't want to play North Carolina.

Isiah Thomas is such a butt pirate that it is amazing. He would have been better off just disappearing from the public eye after his playing days were over. He may have been a great player, but a great coach he is not, and most of the time he is acting like an a-hole.

Why? Do you know why they are called the dolphins, or do you think only schools near dolphins should use that nickname? Perosnally I like the idea behind why they are called the dolphins. It makes about as much sense as a school in Cincinnati calling themselves the Musketeers. It's our connection to French history, it's their connection to Italian history.

I mean I think it's funny that a school in Syracuse is called the Orange.
